Maurício Veiga brings his experience in mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and infrastructure to support the firm’s work on highly complex transactions
KLA announces the arrival of Maurício Veiga as a partner in June, strengthening its Corporate Law, M&A, and Infrastructure practices.
Maurício has nearly 12 years of experience advising Brazilian and international clients on mergers and acquisitions and private equity transactions, representing investment funds, multinational companies, and financial institutions. He also works on infrastructure projects in Brazil, covering the structuring, implementation, and operational phases, with particular expertise in the energy sector, including distributed generation and self-production projects.
Before joining KLA, Maurício worked at leading law firms in the Brazilian legal market, gaining experience in large-scale and highly complex transactions.

He also completed an exchange program in International Business Law at Tilburg University (Netherlands).
According to KLA’s Executive Committee, Maurício’s addition to the partnership reflects the firm’s commitment to bringing together professionals with strong technical capabilities and a consistent business-oriented approach, enhancing its coordinated, strategic, and highly specialized support to clients.
